Is it possible to include trans women in women’s sports while preserving fair competition? What exactly does fair competition entail? The Abbey Speaker Series returns on October 8 to explore this question. Join us in the auditorium of the Carolina Union for a discussion between athletic performance experts Joanna Harper and Alun Williams. The conversation will be moderated by historian Bonnie Morris, an expert in the history of women’s sports. Students who attend in person can earn CLE credit. No tickets are necessary; seating is first-come, first-served. We will reserve tickets for guests coming from outside Chapel Hill. Please email [email protected] to reserve seats. Join us for pizza in the lobby afterward!
